Tensai-san: Enjoy the new chapter!


Two figures in black cloaks with red clouds stood on the wall surrouding Konoha, they had finally made it here in record time. Now they stared down at the citizens busily going about in their own little world, completely ignoring the injured boy on the street. "Imbeciles, every one of them, I do not understand why the Yondaime saved such a useless village,"

"Hn," Itachi cast a genjutsu over them and leapt down into the busy street below.

He made his way casually over to the boy on the street, aka Naruto. Kisame cast cautious glances all around him, often glaring at an unsuspecting villager for their incomptence..


"This is bull!" Deidara cried as he tripped on the sand again and fell flat on his face.

"Shut up Deidara, I want you to go get Juubi, I'll get Ichibi," Sasori intoned as he walked past his fallen comrade.

"Who died and made you king?" Deidara grumbled and got up. He dusted himself off and scrambled up the sand dune only to find Sasori already at the village wall.

By the time Deidara had got to the wall Sasori was gone, still grumbling he scanned the area for major chakra signatures. He sensed a large one in the west end of the village and found Sasori moving in that direction. So he turned to the east-side, there was a major flare in the Kazekage tower and ANBU headquarters, no surprise there. But there was a lone spark, by the north wall of the village was several plateaus. A single splash of swirling black chakra sat there, constantly shifting.

"Gotcha," Deidara grinned and made his clay bird. He took to the air and into the rare clouds in the desert sky, far out of sight.


"This is Kiri," Zetsu looked at the poor people sitting in their little shacks.

"Tobi's a good boy, Tobi's a good boy, please don't hurt me-ow!" (Tobi sounded like a cat here) Zetsu smacked his partner in the back of his head.

"Stop attracting attention," dark Zetsu snarled.

After he had shut his partner up, Zetsu proceeded with checking out for large chakra signatures. The Seven Swordsmen of the Mist were long gone so that should narrow down the number of large chakra signatures by..exactly seven. "The Sandaime Mizukage seems to be getting weaker," Zetsu noted mentally when he noticed a the flickering signature in the tower, "I'll have to tell Pein, Kiri could be useful later on," Zetsu turned his attention towards the poorest part of the village.

Broken glass covered the path, doors hung from their hinges, holes were in the rotting houses, several buildings had collapsed, rodents scampered bravely around them and the stench of blood hung in the air like a damp blanket. Out of the corner of his left eye, Zetsu noticed a bright blue flash moving at a running pace away from them.

"Come Tobi, I've located Sanbi," Zetsu turned to his partner and followed the blue streak.


"I didn't do anything! Don't hurt me!" Naruto whimpered when he saw two guys looming over him.

Itachi sighed and expanded his genjutsu so it would cover Naruto as well, "We won't hurt you,"

"I don't know that," Naruto dragged himself backwards trying to get away from them.

Kisame was watching out for any nin headed their way when he picked up two signatures, "Itachi, Hatake Kakashi and Gekkou Hayate is headed our way, we have to hurry!"

"Listen, we'll give you a home, a better life than this, training to become the best shinobi ever, you'll have a family, you'll get the respect you deserve," Itachi spoke on hushed tones.

"No more hungry nights?" Naruto looked at them cautiously.

"No more hungry nights," Itachi promised him.

"But this is my home!" Naruto exclaimed.

"Look around you kid, you live in an alleyway and eat crap that dogs wouldn't touch," Itachi gestured at the dumpster, "You'll never become half the ninja you should be here,"

"I-"


"Hello, Gaara," Sasori greeted the red head in front of him.

"Who are you?" the sand by his feet began to twitch.

"My name is Sasori, that is all you need to know," Sasori said calmly.

"What do you want? Are you another assassin?" Gaara grinned as killer intent leaked off of him. His father, the Kazekage had sent three or four assasssins out to kill him weekly but none of them suceeded. Gaara made sure nobody found their remains, what they would find was sand, bloodstained sand.

Sasori looked around, this street was completely deserted, nobody would find out what happened until they were long gone. The adbandoned houses around them were a sure sign of that, so was the unmarked dirt gravel path they stood on, "No I'm here to take you to a place where you will be respected and loved, where you will be trained to become a ninja as strong as the Kazekage here," Sasori was exaggerating a bit but all in all it should work right?

"What if I don't want to leave?" Gaara frowned, "I have a friend here,"

"I'll try to make arrangements for them to come with you," Sasori lied and Gaara could tell he was lying.

"I-"


"Hey kid!" Deidara yelled as he landed right beside the kid on his bird.

"I have a name you know, but all in all kid is better than demon or monster," Reiten glanced at the newcomer briefly before watching the sky again. The late afternoon sun was still hot but it was comfortable for Reiten. While everybody was inside enjoying air conditioning, Reiten would be outside enjoying the harsh desert winds and afternoon heat. If it was nice enough he would just lay in the sand, it felt nice to him while everybody else would be running around complaining about the heat of the desert.

"I have an offer for you, un!" Deidara leapt off his bird and looked the kid up and down. He was wearing a tattered pair of shorts and t-shirt. His black hair was matted and rather long. But what was out of place was the shiny chain that tied a battered case to his back.

"What is it?" Reiten asked without even looking at the explosions expert.

"I'll take you to a better place to live! Yeah! You'll be respected and loved and what-not! Un!" Deidara grinned.

Reiten looked up at him for a few moments before looking down at the village below, "This is my home, I want to prove to them that they are wrong, I can't do that if I leave,"

"Listen kid, I was the same," Deidara sat down next to him, all of a sudden somber, "Nobody understood me, so I left and did my own thing, start over kid, it's better for you,"

"I-"


"Gotcha kid, now where do you think you're going?" Zetsu boomed menacingly. They had chased the kid through alleys and streets for nearly an hour and finally they had cornered him.

"Away from you, if you're here to bring me back to that stuck up clan in Konoha, you should just give up now, I'm not going!" the cornered child crossed his arms and shook his messy blue hair out of his green eyes.

"We're not going to take you back to Konoha, we're going to take you to a top secret village where you'll be respected and trained to the best of your abilities. Nobody will try to hunt you down," Zetsu assured the stubborn child in front of him.

Koga narrowed his eyes and stared the plant-like man in the eye. After several moments of staring he turned and glared at Tobi.

"Tobi's a good boy! Don't hurt me!" Tobi whimpered and tried to hide behind Zetsu.

"I-"


Lucky-sama: Woohoo a cliffy in all the scenes!

Tensai-san: Sorry, she's high on sugar

Lucky-sama:R&R please!
